Researchers compute their way toward cleaner coal plants
June 9, 2017
When you think of turbulence, you might think of a bumpy plane ride. Turbulence, however, is far more ubiquitous to our lives than just air travel. Ocean waves, smoke from fire, even noise coming from jet engines or wind turbines are all related to turbulence.
A team of researchers at RWTH Aachen University's Institute of Aerodynamics (AIA) has long been interested in using computation to understand turbulence—one of the major challenging mysteries of fluid dynamics—and how it relates to aircraft noise, fuel efficiency, or the transport of pollutants, among other research interests.
